I've been trying to access Madisound's site for a week.
URL is not valid
Is it me, or have they closed their doors?

I just got some stuff from them on Friday with no problems, but got shut out of the website today.
It's back now. AFAIK, they run their own server. I've seen it down several times before.
Just trivia, they've been running a BBS or other "online" presence since the 80s.

ahhh, the joys of hosting your own server. At a previous employer, I worked out of our Austin office and HQ was in Houston. But we ran a web-server out of Austin. Our poor network guy had to make 1 am trips from Houston to Austin to fix the darn thing every time it crashed. Hosting yourself can be a major pain.

Works for me. Madisound Speaker Components | Assisting speaker builders for more than 25 years.
Still not working for you m12ax7?
Okay, I'm pretty sure it's not me. Every other site opens just fine.
Right not.. 1:15pm CST I'm getting the "invalid URL" message.
I guess I'll keep trying.
thanks!

makes me wonder... what url are you typing in?
have you tried getting there though a google search?
anyhoo, good luck!
m12ax7, did you clear your cache? You may be looking at a cached page.
Hi..
Yes, deleted all cookies and web history. Tried both firefox and Exp.
At 3:00 pm CDT.. same thing "Invalid URL"
Tried both my book mark and several of the hits when googled.
All other book marks I've tried work fine.
But I haven't given up! (yet)
thanks!
you can also try this in Windows: Start > Run > "ipconfig /flushdns"
without the quotes of course. that might do the trick.

Well.. my Madisound book mark still gives me the "invalid URL" clicking on any of the google responses gives me the same error message.
When I click on your supplied link I do get to a Madisound page but it will not completely load. It just "hangs". trying to click on any of the page links either "hangs" or give me an "Invalid URL"
It's kinda strange! I'm not much more that 90 miles from them (as the crow fly's) Time for me to get out the tin cans and long piece of string!
I'd say that test indicates that your DNS server has a bum entry. The page elements that won't load and the bum links would all require a correct DNS server entry to resolve.
You can poke your ISP or just wait until they refresh their DNS tables.

Yup! Used to dial into them fairly regularly back in the day on my blazing 1200 baud modem. 😀
